Ghana is beautiful
If you pause long enough
To see the colour in the squalor
If you pause long enough to sample the order in the odours.
Ghana is beautiful
If you stand long enough
To feel the humor in the clamour
And are not too particular
About what is correct and what is not.
Ghana is beautiful
When you appreciate the patience
Of a suffering people
Waiting to progress.
